TxAPhi,
Once again, you rock! GREAT ARTICLE!
I SOOOO see the annoyance of the "helicopter parents"! No, Little Jimmy is NOT going to get a trophy JUST for participating...These kids aren't taught to lose gracefully. That is an underrated skill. You WEREN'T THE BEST! DEAL! And work harder...No one wants to WORK HARDER!
It seems as if they want things to come now, if not yesterday. The parents feel as if their children piss and isht platinum...
Personal responsibility and humility seem to be things of the past!
